High impact information on dhp-2

  • These newly isolated molecules were believed to represent a common ancestral state before the gene duplication between CRMPs and DHP [1].
  • In this study we isolated two cDNA clones from nematode C. elegans based on their sequence homology to vertebrate CRMPs and DHP [1].
  • These CRMPs exhibit about 60% amino acid identity with vertebrate dihydropyrimidinase (DHP), an amidohydrolase involved in the pyrimidine degradation pathway [1].
